I miss them. Not that I have an imminent need for them since moving out of hurricane territory, but I sometimes track storms "back home". 
WunderMaps and the like are great, but I enjoyed the very hands-on process of putting pins in the paper map. And with these, even if the radio died, you could at least still see the info you had gathered so far.

As far as last year, the paper hurricane tracking maps still are out there on the Gulf Coast South, in newspapers, drugstores, hardware stores, etc.
We kept one on the side of the fridge, with a kitchen magnet.
